Solutions for all designs

Compact engine designs run hotter and require materials used in valve bodies to have higher temperature performance.

Arnite® PET is the thermoplastic material of choice for control housing valve bodies for such systems.

For larger engine compartments where lower temperatures are encountered, Arnite® PBT meets performance criteria.
